Hi Lan, Some questions : which O.S. and which Oslevel are you trying to install to ? Did you try to install from a local or remote drive ? How far did the install process go (if on windows, did it create a "TSM_INSTALL" directory under c: ?) Also keep in mind that unless you have a 5.2 server, you

Chris, Nearly two years ago (during the TSM 4.2 era) QLogic changed the default value of MaximumSGList option from 0x41 to 0x21. This option mandates how large your FCP packets can be. If you were receiving errors when packet is larger than the limit, you will now during backup time there is an in
